I started the page because there were a lot of vocal gnomes on twitter, and I wanted to join in, but also give a slightly different perspective and act as a foil. Most of my screen shots do come from the model viewer. I THINK they have 4 toe foot prints now, but I have not actually checked. Thanks for checking out my page!

I would never play a Gnome, and in general, anything mechanical is rarely something I spend time on (I even have a hard time finding a battle pet I like in that category!) – so it’s actually rather cool to read and hear how it’s like, when it’s so far from what I play myself.

Maybe it all dates back to when I did whatever I could for the Gnomes to like me enough to sell me their Mechanostrider, but I just got told “You are too tall”, no matter what I did. Do their footprints still have 3 toes?

You have some really great character screenshots and gifs too; I am just reading through your posts (rather fun to do that, reading thoughts about Legion before it launched, and see where we are now) – do you use that model viewer thing to make them, or?

Fri, 14 Jul 2017 15:34:45 +0000http://siccothermaplugg.wordpress.com/?p=7148#comment-111Totally agree. Especially with your 3rd point, his current condition gives me a lot of leeway when doing RP things with Thermaplugg. Sometimes he has bad days where things seem logical to him that are not, or he can’t remember anything correctly. Other days he is lucid, and almost his old self. It gives his personality an interesting dynamic.

To your last point, his decision to blow up Gnomeregan has been the hardest part of trying to RP him. Trying to understand how the character could have ever justified those actions to himself is the most difficult thing for me to deal with. I think I have trouble even pretending I’m that evil. When addressing it in In Character I mostly have Thermaplugg lie and claim it was an accident. I did at one point think of a convoluted story where he was mostly framed, but eventually decided it was too removed from the lore, and honestly, just unnecessary because it simply shifted the blame elsewhere.

Fri, 14 Jul 2017 15:09:07 +0000http://siccothermaplugg.wordpress.com/?p=7148#comment-110How I see Thermaplugg:

– He doesn’t want to cure the leper gnomes. The more insane his subjects are, the more subservient they are. He likes the subservience and the power it gives him.

– He did not initially intend on creating leprosy, but he likes the result.

– His genius is diminished by his condition. He’s very good at creating very complicated machines… only he’s concentrating on making a drill to the planet’s core to go to Kalimdor, because it just didn’t click that it’s much cheaper to just go there over the surface.

– A good villain needs a specific goal – and for Themaplugg IMO it would be his obssession with Mekkatorque. He would do anything to spite his rival, cooperate with anyone, sacrifice everything he has, just for that one goal.

– A carry over from his un-diseased life, he’s absolutely narcissistic. He always considered himself the smartest in Gnomeregan and he blew it up to prove that Mekkatorque is dumber than him. Everything he did, was the best. Of course his decision to blow up Gnomeregan wasn’t a mistake! Gnomes are much better off under his reign, even diseased, than they would be under Mekkatorque’s blundering inability to govern and his toadiness to the Alliance.
